Alison Dodds Architect

Alison Dodds Architect Alison Dodds Architect is a small practice based in South Yarra that specializes in high quality residential architecture and interiors.

Our primary aim is to incorporate light, clean and open spaces in residential dwellings and we recognise the importance of accommodating our client's specific needs and preferences. We gain immense satisfaction from taking our client's ideas and making them a reality. Our considered response to site, context, affordability and program drives the evolution of each project. As we are a small firm, t

he personalised service that we offer means you will deal with the same people and develop a mutual working relationship throughout the project. Additionally, we have good connections with several excellent builders and have extensive experience in dealing with local councils. We strongly believe that this is pivotal in order to facilitate the path from conception through to building and completion.

site update
This rear addition brings meaningful connection between living spaces and newly created pockets of garden. The original fabric of the Edwardian home will undergo a huge reinvigoration to breathe new life into previously unused spaces
Injecting warmth, convenience and comfort, this new chapter will see our client enjoy many more years in this beautiful home.

The old Art Deco charm had much going for it already, the owners just wanting to bring it in to the 21st Century. The well-structured bones, stylish features, and established garden just needed some thoughtful interventions.

The redesigned kitchen, laundry and bathroom inject new warmth, convenience and comfort. Deep green is offset by timber and bronze, allowing the fine craftsmanship and meticulous design to be the heroes.

Stay tuned for Part 2, an addition which will further contribute to meaningful connection between living spaces and the rear yard.

Our clients are such an important part of our projects. Their enthusiasm and trust in the process allows us to do our best work and create the most delightful built outcomes for you.

Throwback to one of our earliest projects, Shoreham House.

"Alison Dodds Architect was the only company we approached to do our build. As soon as my husband and I met Alison we knew she was the person for the job."
"She and her team were fabulous to work with. There were no egos just harmony. Not a stone was turned until we all knew what we wanted which meant there were no added unforeseen costs. My only regret is that we are not building another house with Alison and her team."

Lovely words from our dream clients, who entrusted us with the task of creating a beach house for weekends with their extended family on the Mornington Peninsula.

Learn more about the Shoreham House on our website.

FULTON HOUSE
Our client's existing bathroom was cold, dark and poorly ventilated. Some small interventions such as, a new walk in shower, vanity with easy to use storage, underfloor heating, a heated towel rail and a quality exhaust unit have made a significant impact and offered our clients many more years of enjoyable light-filled living.

It's now a comfortable and functional and pretty lovely space to use.

Thinking about a bathroom update?

FULTON HOUSE
Our clients love where they live but decided it was time to make a series of small and thoughtful interventions to improve the functionality and liveability of their existing apartment.

It was important to address mobility and ergonomics. So, making it a lovely, easy, sustainable, low maintenance place for them to live long term was our priority.

Seeing our clients loving their newly renovated environment, is the happy moment for us.
